Meet Phil Loadholt

Raiders coach Tom Cable loves offensive lineman so much, one team insider swears he’s going to grab two of them in next weekend’s NFL Draft.

It’s all part of his plan to build the Raiders from the “inside out,” as new left tackle Khalif Barnes recently put it.

The list of recent visitors seems to bear the idea out. On Tuesday, two offensive line prospects visited team headquarters — one was unidentified, the other was Oklahoma left tackle Phil Loadholt, who’s projected to go in the second or third round by nfldraftscout.com.

Loadholt took a few minutes for a phone interview while at the Oakland airport Tuesday. Here’s what the 6-foot-8, 332-pound man had to say.

Q: How did the visit go?

A: “I thought it went very well. I met with the offensive line coach, got to sit down with him and go through some stuff on the board. I drew up some schemes we ran at Oklahoma. He taught me a play and I put it back on the board, showed them I can convert a scheme. Things like that.”

Q: What scheme did you run at Oklahoma?

A: We definitely ran a lot of zone blocking. Actually, looking at some of the drills they ran, they are very similar to what we did in college. Definitely very similar.”

Q: What makes you a zone blocking scheme fit?

A: “My ability to get up to the second level. You’re not just blocking a zone, you’re blocking a man. It’s knowing where your man is going to be and being able to get there to block him.”

Q: Any Raiders give you advice?

A: “Met some of the offensive linemen who were there for voluntary workouts, Khalif Barnes, Samson Satele. They just told me take everything in stride and to enjoy the process as much as possible.”

** As for a scouting report on Loadholt, here’s what I gathered from numerous websites.

Pros: Long arms, good strength, above-average athleticism for his size. Has the makings of a solid drive blocker, especially if he goes to the right side. Run blocking is his strength.

Cons: With just two years of college experience, could be a bit of a project. Could have a hard time with speed rushers on the edge. Two arrests related to DUI and disorderly conduct a concern.
